Lumin Projects, Lumin Paks and Lumin Archived Projects

Okay, so what is the deal with Lumin and all these projects, Paks and archives?

Because Lumin is a versatile tool, these three unique aspects of Lumin can cause some confusion. The following is an attempt to clarify how each is different from the other and how to properly use them.

Inside MAF-Learning Technologies’ Education Team

Instructional design, consultations, educational principles, course design, distance education, learning management systems. These are some of the words that describe the Education Team within MAF-Learning Technologies. The team consists of Nicholas Ivins, Ralph Dawson, and Brian Ward. We work in harmony with the Technology Team to help bring training to isolated church leaders. One of our primary activities is to consult with other ministries.

What do we consult about? We advise in areas of how to build distance courses and how to deliver distance training using appropriate technologies.

Got Video Games?

On my recent trip to Asia to interact with LT staff there, we discussed the question, "Why is it that someone will not spend much time doing an e-learning course yet will spend hours playing a video game?" Our discussion led us to make a list of the characteristics of a video game that keep players involved. Here is a list of what we thought were important elements of a video game.

Instructional Design Ministry in Action

My colleague and I are preparing to leave our Christmas-decorated homes on Sunday. What would motivate us to do this, we who have 8 children between us?

Two ministries have asked us to come and give consulting on instructional design. Since they have time in December, we go in December.

One of the ministries provides Christian audio and visual materials for their region. They want us to help them learn how to develop courses and lessons to accompany their audio/video materials that can be delivered on CD.
